Vizio Versus TCL TVs for Your Home Theater

Most TVs cost between $300 and $2,000. It’s an expensive but necessary purchase if you enjoy watching shows and movies. However, since TVs are so expensive, it’s important to know which brands offer the best selections. Two of the most popular TV brands are Vizio and TCL.

Vizio is a popular TV brand with many options. They have over 50 smart TV models that range in size from a small 24 inches to a massive 85 inches. Most of their TVs are also affordable and cost under $800. Since other brands charge nearly double for similar options, Vizio is a great, affordable choice.

Almost all of Vizio’s TVs come with 4k picture, WiFi 6E, Dolby Vision HDR, and smart access to millions of channels. Vizio TVs also pair easily with the high-quality Vizio soundbar. As a result, you get a seamless connection between your TV and sound system.

TCL also offers a range of options and includes a selection of nearly 120 TVs. The smallest TV size is 28 inches, and the largest TCL TV is 98 inches. Unlike Vizio, whose TVs all fell within a similar price range, TCL’s prices range from extremely affordable to prohibitively expensive.

For example, the most affordable TV from TCL is the $124 34-inch 3-Series TV. On the other end of the spectrum, TCL’s most expensive option is the $8,499.99 98-inch QLED TV. Although TCL has a range of options, the bulk of the inventory falls between $400 and $700. That said, the brand has plenty of options that cost well over $1,000.

Many of these TVs also come with HD screens, Dolby Vision HDR, and smart access to apps. TCL also has TVs that collaborate with Roku, Android, and Google to help match your TV to your smart home system of choice.

Yes. Both Vizio and TCL are reliable brands. When you purchase a TV from either brand, you can expect a quality, long-lasting TV. And although these TVs are vulnerable to damage, you can remedy the potential for defects by pairing your TV with an Upsie extended warranty.

In many categories, TCL and Vizio are evenly matched. Both are affordable and have great smart features. Overall, choosing between the two is difficult because they are so evenly matched. In the end, the choice comes down to preference.

For example, if you prefer the smooth look and feel of Roku TVs, then TCL is the better choice. However, if you have a Vizio soundbar and prefer thin, sleek TVs, Vizio has the better options.

TVs are vulnerable to damage. Although your new TV should come with a manufacturer’s warranty, the warranty is extremely limited in its coverage. Plus, the manufacturer’s warranty often lasts no longer than 12 months. After it expires, you’ll have to pay out of pocket for repairs or a replacement.

The better option is to pair your TV with an Upsie extended warranty. Upsie’s warranties are comprehensive and affordable. With an Upsie TV warranty, you can make unlimited claims up to the TV’s purchase price, contact claims 24/7/365, and protect your TV from screen burn-in.

Upsie’s warranties cost up to 70% less than warranties sold elsewhere. You can also purchase an Upsie warranty for TVs bought in the last 11 months, meaning there’s no rush at the checkout counter to buy an overpriced warranty. As a result, you can get the best protection at the best price.
